Hey everyone! Tracy McLennon here, I am this month's guest designer here at BPM. I'm so excited to be a part of this team even if it's just for the mont of March!

Here on the east coast of Canada March has come In Like a Lion with yet another winter storm. What was March 1st like for you where you are? With that said, my challenge has an animal theme. I would like to see some scrapbook layouts that are dedicated to the animals in your life. This can be your beloved pets, a trip to the zoo or wildlife park or even your children acting like animals lol

Here is a layout I created of my beloved pooch Zeus. He's no longer with us, but I wanted to finally scrapbook a layout of my favorite photo of Zeus.

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!Thanks for crafting along!

You have from now until midnight Eastern time on March 31st to complete the challenge. You may complete as many projects using the challenge as you wish. Each project will earn you an entry into our monthly prize drawing. Please upload your layout to our gallery -http://www.backporchmemories.com/gallery2/ - in the appropriate "March '13 Challenges" folder (Tracy's Challenge) to be eligible for the prize.

This layout is amazing! I love your circle punched border...might have to scraplift that idea! I don't have pets but will look through photos to see what else I can use. Might have to go back 15 years and pull out older photos of when we had a cat.
